I grew up in Philadelphia but I recently lived in Oregon for a couple years, and the best cheesesteak I've ever had outside of Philly was at a place called New York Richie's, which has 2 locations: in La Grande (10303 W. 1st Street) and in Enterprise (215 W. Main Street), both in eastern Oregon close to the Idaho border. I think this place should win the award for most random location for a great cheesesteak, because not only is it on the west coast, but there's literally nothing but farms and cows for 400 miles in any direction. New York Richie is quite a character (he used to be a professional bodybuilder) but he makes a great cheesesteak! I had one with provolone and onions at both of the locations. He does chopped steak with onions mixed in. I had provolone, which was evenly melted on top of the steak. The bread is not quite authentic--I missed the Amoroso rolls I was used to getting back home (and New York Richie himself told me he had trouble finding the right bread in OR)--but otherwise it was excellent. If you're ever in eastern oregon, New York Richie's is a must.
